two helicopters hovering over a poppy field

It's been a week since the show at Double Door. Essenza asked us to be on the bill and we found out why. I think they owe us one. We had fun, they were great and they're such nice people that we can't wait to do another show together. Airiel played very well and we got a good crowd out to support. It was over way too soon, as always. I showed some new video and we all got rip roaring drunk downstairs with our dear friends Kill Hannah, Chris G., and others who came out. We talked trash with KH about kicking their ass in Halo, which was later settled this past Thursday. I ended up after Double Door at Neo with Chris G. and others dancing very drunkenly to Comasoft, Skinny Puppy, and whatever else. I got a burrito on the way home and another show down the tubes. The title of this entry comes from a myspace comment left for Airiel from our friend Dave about the show. Thanks dude.

About settling the Halo score with Kill Hannah. All of Airiel, except Cory, went to Greg's house on Thursday and got our asses handed to us. KH are Halo ninjas. I guess if you spend months on tour with nothing to do but play XBOX on a tour bus, you're going to be good at it. It was a flurry of grenades and rockets. Good job guys, but I still want a rematch. Halo2? Star Wars Battlefront 1 or 2? Bring it. Yes we're geeks.

Next show: Highwheel Records compilation release with Walking Bicycles, Arks, and Rhineland Bastards at Double Door on April 19th. This is going to be a great show. You can hear the new Airiel song called "Peoria" on myspace and the record will be available at the show.
